Every year the World Wide Fund For Nature organization; organizes the event
"Earth Hour". An event to motivate people throughout the world to turn-off
the lights which are less important for daily work for a whole hour.
This event symbolizes a commitment to the planet to secure the nature in a
way to draw attention to energy/electricity expending. This year's Earth Hour will be held on 24 March 8:30 pm - your local time. With a tag #Connect2Earth.
Many of us knows about this. Even many of us also celebrate this every year.
But this year's Earth hour has something new to offer. Something special for the people here on steemit and blockchain technology.
This year the Russian Crypto miners asking internationally to turn of all the mining equipment for 1 hour on the day of the Earth Hour( 20.30 to 21.30 local time) to create awareness for more ecological friendly Blockchain technologies. They are doing this with a motto of: 鈥淰ote for Nature".
They also named the event as "Crypto Hour".
The creation of systems to use the heat generated in the process of mining and develop less energy-intensive distributed ledger technologies. - Dvoryankin (Founder; International Investor Network CryptoLife )
As per a report by Grist(A nonprofit news organization) :
The bitcoin computer network currently uses more electricity than Ireland and some of the African Countries, as much electricity as Denmark and will consume as much energy used by the whole US within the next 1 and a half year.
As already a European power supplying company says No To Crypto Mining.
It is a good time to show our awareness towards our Nature from the Crypto Mining Communities.
Already more than 50000 Russain people signed-up for the Earth Hour program and more to come from the international level. Anyone can join the event internationally by registering at https://www.earthhour.org/celebrate-the-hour although the registration process is not mandatory. Your participation is what the world needs.
Tell me, how you are going to celebrate this year's the Earth Hour?
And Let also encourage people, family and friends to be more efficient with the using of electricity.
Coz by using less or using to the limit that really matters is a way to show our awareness towards our mother nature and also to our future.
